ALBERT LEA PROSPEROUS.
Some Of the Enterprises Under
Way to Build Up a City.

Special to the Globe.
ALBERT LEA, May 6.-You may not
call it boom, and citizens here are not
particular to have it so designated, be-
cause the term has come to signify a
short, spasmodic and unnatural state of
affairs in town, but that Albert Lea
has before it year of splendid develop
ment, one that even eXcelS its former
progressive years, is apparent on every
street and in nearly every block within
the corporation. Chief among the i'm
prOvementS, involving the expenditure
of large amounts of money, IS the new
court house, for which the foundation is
now being dug. The building will be
one of the largest and noblest structures
of the kind i'll the state. Next is second
building for the Albert Lea college, which
has so tiOuriShed as to more than pay
running expenses, and the demands for
boarding and recitation rooms for next
year absolutely require another build
ing. This will cost about $4,000. The
Mccormick Rusfeldt ChriStopherSon
block on Clark street, John ThOsesons
large brick building on same street, S.
S. Edwards brick store on Broadway,
Il. V. KnotvOed's brick ma
chinery building on Williams
SIlCClt oilti SCNCldl OtlltE
business structures are now being built,
and they will cost $4,000 at least, for
they are in all respects firSt-class build
ingS. Besides these, the Burlington,
Cedar Rapids q Northern and Minneap-
oils & st. Louis Railway companies are
making extensive improvements in the
WinSlow house and upon the depot.
Several residences, costing up into the
thousands, and numerous smaller ones
in all parts of the city give some idea of
the busy times ard of the march of
progress. The great wooden mill just
completed is not eXcelled outside the
Twin cities i'll character of machinery
OF in capacity, and it will open for bust
ness this week. The board of trade is
proving to be a harmonious, wide awake
and powerful organization, and it has in
hand several projects of great advantage
to the city, among them being a pork
packing establishment and a pottery and
tile mandatory. The Southern Min
nesOta G.. A. Il. association will be held
here June l, 9 and 3, and assurances
have been given that it will be the
greatest old soldiers reunion ever held
i'll Southern Minnesota. The board of
trade and the city council have each ap-
pointed committees to assist in making
the event success, and both these
bodies will contribute literally in funds.
The signs are auSpicuouS for Albert
Lea, and her citizens, being generous
minded, are willing that the world
should know it.

The youth was so ardent in the cause of
nihiliSm that he sold his gold gradual

accomplice to leave the empire when
the assassination was accomplished. All
the prisoners pleaded guilty, and every
one refused, under threat or promise to
betray any accomplice. The evidence
at the trial of these men indicated the
existence of four widely ramifying nihi-

man.
ST. LOUIS, May 6.-Officer Tubbs yes
terday arrested Oswald w. Achenbaok,
nerr Third and Chestnut streets on
charge of wife abandonment. Oswald
had been living with his wife at 1929
Clark avenue until a few months ago,
when she first noticed that her husband
was growing careless about coming
home, and that he was not so loving as
formerly, Their affairs went from bad
to worse until, about ten days ago. OS-
wald brought things to crisis by selling
out the household furniture at private
sale without consulting Mrs. Achen-
back in regard to his designs, or even
dividing profits with her. She went to
her fathers family on another street,
and he came down town. He made
street, where he did not lack for fIiends.
Mrs. Achenback hearing of this, sWore
out warrant for his arrest, and he. get
ting wind of her proceedings, drifted
over the bridge and into East st. Louis.
His attachment about 314 Chestnut street
proved too strong, however, and he ar
ranged with fair one to meet him at
the st. Louis end of the bridge yesterday
afternoon. His wife in some way was
made aware of Oswald's
CLANDESTINE APPOINTMENT
with No. 2, and made it a special order
of her days business to put in an aD-
pearance at the st. Louis bridge APP
proach at the exact time the meeting
between her husband and his newly
found friend was to take place. Oswald
had scarcely reduced his smiles to a
normal condition and taken the arm of
No. 2 when Mrs. Achenback stepped up
to his great surprise and utter confusion.
He attempted to fly, but his wife
held him fast, and the other woman, see
ing what a tenacious disposition Mrs.
Achenback possessed, decided to flee to
the mountains, which she proceeded at
once to do, post haste. 1t was as Mrs.
Achenback marched back to the city
with her truant husband, prisoner of
wal, that Officer TubbS saw him on
Third street, and, walking up to Oswald,
placed him under arrest. The wife,
woman-like, pleaded for him in tears,
and insisted that she did not want her
warrent for his arrest executed. But
Oswald was taken to the lookup, and
Mrs. Achenback went with a heavy
bert to the home of her mother. Achen-
back is cigarmaler by trade, and also
does the song and dance act at second
class theaterS.

JOLIET, ILL.,, May 6.-Seventy-fv e
thousand to 100000 of the funds of the
VIII County National bank are missing.
The officials of the concern admit that
there is a big shortage, but say that it was
caused by Cashier Knowlton's bad finan-
cial management and his peculiar
methods of handling the funds of the
old viii County Savings bank. The
cashier has resigned and is now in Can
ado with his wife, but Capt. G.. p.
Phelps, brother of the American min
lister to England, who is his counsel, de-
MES that he is a defaulter and states
that Calvin KnOwlton, his brother, has
made arrangements to make good the
shortage.

Special to the Globe.

Speclal 10 the GLOBE.
WINONA, May 5.-An unsuccessful
attempt was made about $3.50 last even
ing to burn the handsome residence of
John L. Harris across the lake. Nh
Harris mother discovered that the lat
tice work on the front porch was ablaze
and gave the alarm. Mr.. Harris, after
considerable work, succeeded in eXtin-
guishingthe flames and then discov-
cred the porch to be saturated with
kerosene. The lattice work was also
stuffed with paper saturated with kero-
sene, some of the paper being recog-
nized as having been taken from the
inside of the house. 1t was also diScov-
cred that the oil had been taken from
large can in the house. Mr.. Harris has
a suspicion as to who the guilty party is,
but has as yet been unable to secure
evidence that would warrant him in
making any arrests. A short time ago
his barn Eysteriously caught fire and
burned to the ground, and the same day
a fire was Uncovered in the wood box of
the kitchen.

even now. We are not surprised that
his lawyer did not consider that there
was any reasonable ground for action"

Corneilson Goes Free.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 6.-John j..
Corneilson, who assaulted and cowhided
Judge Reid, causing him to suicide, and
who was sentenced to Jail for three
years, was released on writ of habeas
corpus by Magistrate Stoffer. The affair
has created sensation, inasmuch as his
release amounts to a magistrates court
overruling the decision of the court of
appeals. The magistrate, Stoler, de-
cides that the old common law of Eng
land and Virginia, on which the i'm
prisonment of Corneilson was predi-
Gated, does not enter into the statutes of
Kentucky, and consequently the i'm
prisonment was illegal. Lawyers say
that StOtfer has placed himself in con-
tempt of the court of appeals. Cornell
son is on the street to-day attending to
business.

quainted, and | noticed when | called

IRATE AU STRLIANs.
They are Disguised With the PoI<
icy Regarding the New He
hpiHaS

icy Regarding the New He
brides.
LONDON, May Cit now appears that
Sir Henry Holland, secretary of state
for the colonies, announced in the coll
onial conference here on the 9th ult.,
that the government hoped to arrange
with France for joint naval commits
sion for the government of the New
Hebrides. The commission, it was
stated, would have power to protect the
settlers, traders and missionaries,
to land marines to punish the
natives for committing outrages and to
maintain order, the marines, however,
to be withdrawn when the special work
for which they were landed was accom-
pliShed. If the scheme proposed was
accepted by France it was to be arranged
that the French garriSOns now occupy
ing the chief harbor in the New He
brides should retire. The Australians,
without exception, deprecated any pol
icy which even seemed to recognize
French pretensions i'll the new He
brides. The
MARQUIS OF SALISBURY,
who was present, supported the speech
made by Sir Henry Holland in justifca-
ton of the governments proposal. The
argument, however, instead of nollifi-
ing the incensed delegates, served but
to intensity their wrath. His remarks
implied that the Australian demands
hampered England in her negotiations
with France, He maintained the colon
lists make mistake in not accepting the
compromise, which the Earl of Rosebery
proposed and which the premier said
would have prevented the extension of
the evils complained of by the the Aus
tralians as arising from the sending of
French conyicts to the South Pacific,
and the rejection of which had made it
difficult for the English government to
approach France with any request that
she curtail her liberty of action.
''Surely," exclaimed the Marquis of
Salisbury, 1.-The colonies do not desire to
make the agitation casuS belli." The
premier's speech increased the disSatis-
faction of the delegates to such an ex-
tent that Sir Graham Berry, the agent
general OF Victoria, tainted the prime
minister with having made a speech
''that would have been excellent COM
ing from the mouth of the French
